[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is honestly dependent on the school. My high school limited us to only three APs a year. We were a smaller school so there weren't enough spots in the AP classes for it to be fair for one student to take six APs a year. This did not impact our college admissions in the slightest. Our valedictorian goes to Stanford and the salutatorian is at Brown. On top of this, a good amount got into Berkeley and UCLA (This is in California). I took one in my junior year and three my senior year year and ended up at a NESCAC.

Also, this is a really privileged conversation. [b]While wealthier high schools might offer fifteen different courses, a lot of schools only have 4 or 5[/b]. [/quote]
Thanks for highlighting this. Schools like McLean offer every nearly single AP so it is reasonable to take five your junior and senior year. My high school only offered AP Biology, AP Lit / AP Lang, AP Calc, AP Environmental Science, and AP Spanish. I had no issues getting into good quality schools. [/quote]
